In attempts to produce a low-fat cheese with a rheology and texture similar to that of a full-fat cheese, guar gum (within 0.0025–0.01%; w/v, final concentration) was added to low-fat milk. The obtained cheeses were characterised regarding their physicochemical, thermal, rheological and textural properties. Control cheeses were also produced with low and full-fat milk. The physicochemical properties of the guar...
Enzymatic synthesis of fructose fatty acid ester was performed in organic solvent media, using a purified lipase from Candida antartica B immobilized in acrylic resin. Response surface methodology with a central composite rotatable design based on five levels was implemented to optimize three experimental operating conditions (temperature, agitation and reaction time). A statistical significant cubic model was ...
Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) namely, kestose, nystose and fructofuranosylnystose, are prebiotics that can be obtained by fermentation. The resulting fermentative broth is a complex mixture consisting also of salts and other sugars that must be removed. Adsorption equilibrium studies were conducted using the static method in batch mode onto Dowex Monosphere calcium resin, at 60ºC, for FOS contained in a ferment...

Adsorption equilibrium of fructose, glucose and sucrose was evaluated on sulfonated poly(styrene-codivinylbenzene) cation-exchange resins. Two types of resins were used: potassium (K+) gel-type and sodium (Na+) macroporous resins. Influence of the cation and effect of the resin structure on adsorption were studied. The adsorption isotherms were determined by the static method in batch mode for monocomponent and...
Separation of glucose from mixtures of fructose and sucrose in molasses is a major challenge in industrial sugar chromatographic separations. The efficiency of a chromatographic process is largely dependent on the adsorbent used. Sulfonated poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) (PS-DVB) ion exchange resins are the most frequently used for sugars separation, generally in a cationic form. The cation will complex with t...
A finalidade deste artigo é dupla: em primeiro lugar, fazer uma breve revisão da perspectiva crítica no campo da psicologia da saúde; em segundo lugar, discutir o seu potencial para a promoção da saúde e prevenção das doenças. Adicionalmente, apresenta-se o esboço de uma perspectiva existencialista em psicologia da saúde.
Columns packed with commercial glass beads 5 and 19 μm average size and a mixture of both (0.7 volume fraction of large particles) were used to analyse starch composition by hydrodynamic chromatography (HDC), applying water as mobile phase. To obviate retrogradation, experiments were carried out at column temperatures of 15 and 3 °C and several types of starch were assayed. In what concerns amylopectin and amyl...
